THROUGH Your View may I thank people who came to our Christmas Services at St. John's and St. Andrew's Churches in Bromsgrove over the festive season and gave generously to our Christmas collections.
Our Christmas theme was 'A Long Way From Home' and we thought particularly of Jesus leaving his home in heaven to be born outside the inn, and those in our world who are 'A Long Way From Home' today, particularly homeless people in Britain and the victims of the South Asian Earthquake.
We raised £1,000 from our Christmas collections which has been sent to the homeless charity 'Crisis' and the 'Disasters Emergency Committee Appeal' for the people of Asia. Thank you to all those who contributed.
